Under The Red Hood

Charles' PoV

Two years have passed since Scynthia's death, her body was never found but I never stopped believing that she's still alive. And I was forced to be engaged to a different girl... and how Irnoic it is! Paano kasi si Daniella yung inarranged marrage saakin, yung dating nakaaway ni Scynthia... I didn't have a choice at all...

I still cried everytime I was alone in my room when I remember my times with Scynthia, I missed her voice, her smile, her face, her personality, her body, and most of all I miss her... the girl I used to fight with when we first met... the girl I saved from the falling debris... the girl I kissed under the mistle toe... I miss her.

I feel like I have no more pupose in life without her, she's my main purpose for living... actually the first few days after what happened I locked myself in my room until nagkasakit ako at naospital... I even ripped out the dextrose on my hand and escaped hospital, I was about to get hit by a bus if it wasn't for Ice pulling me away.

When I was finally okay to go home and to go to school again, I was planning on killing myself, I was about to commit suicide when January and the gang stopped me... I was even planning on jumping off a building when Lex tracked my phone and they stopped me... after a week I decided to stop myself from committing suicide.

I continued my life but I kept going on fights after school to remove my sorrow... I was a mess, until one day I got ran over by a motorcycle, I had a dream that I was going to meet her again so when I woke up I returned to being myself again... for the sake of Scynthia.

"Charles, tara! Sumama ka saamin! Punta tayo sa park." Pagyaya ni Ice. "Okay sure whatever." Sabi ko.

We were now walking in the park when I caught a glimpse of an angel. "Guys are you seeing what I'm seeing?" Tanong ko. "What?" Tanong ni Lex.

Tumuro ako sa malayo. "Doon." Sabi ko. "Is that..." January trailed off.

"Sigurado ako si Scynthia yan." Sabi ni Kendal, agad kami tumakbo palapit sa kanya.

"Scynthia." Sabi ko nung nasa likod na niya ako, humarap siya... it was her...

I was about to rejoice when. "Do I know you?" Tanong niya. "Anong sinasabi mo Scynthia? Kami toh! Yung gang mo." Sabi ko.

"Sorry but I don't know you guys." Sabi niya sabay lakad paalis.

Hinila ko yung kamay niya. "Scynthia wait." Sabi ko. "Let go of me stranger." Sabi niya at inalis yung kamay saakin.

She walked away, hinabol namin siya... "Scynthia!" Sigaw ni Kendal.

Agad siya tumakbo paalis. "I don't know you guys! Get away from me!' Sigaw niya.

Sasha's PoV (Scynthia's PoV)

I was running away from these weirdos chaising me. "Stop following me!" I said while running away.

"Scynthia!" Sigaw ng isang babae.

Sino si Scynthia? I'm Sasha... Sasha Faith Strike...

"I'm not Scynthia!" Sigaw ko.

I saw a kid pushing a cart comming my way, I don't know what got into me but I placed my hands on it and did a flip...

I didn't know I could do that!

I looked at my back and they also managed to jump over it...

Are they ninjas or something!?

I stopped because I was already by the highway. I looked back and saw them comming closer. "Scynthia! Wait!" Sigaw ng lalakeng humila saakin kanina.

I don't know how but everything turned all slow motion I saw a jeepney it passed me and I don't know what got into me I grabbed the handle and jumped to get inside it.

Umupo ako malapit sa pinto.

I saw how they stopped at the side of the road and looked at my direction...

Sino kaya sila bakit ang pamilyarsila saakin? At mas lalo na sino yung humila saakin?

My head started to hurt...

"Nash!" Sabi bigla.

Nash?

"Nash nga!" Sabi ulit.

Nash yung pangalan niya?

"Nash! It's Nash Grier! I told you!" I looked at my side and it was two girls fighting over a picture of a guy.

Oh well, sino kaya yung mga humabol saakin?

I paid the fare of the jeepney and went down to ride a taxi home...

When I arrived home and saw my parents waiting for me. "Hey mom! Hey dad!" I greeted then kissed them on the cheek. "How was your walk?" Tanong ni Dad.

"It was okay, this place is nice." Sabi ko. "I hope you liked it, oh and Sasha dear, you will continue your classes here." Sabi ni Dad.

"Really!? Thank you daddy! Thank you mommy!" Sabi ko. "Anything for you Sasha." Sabi ni mommy.

"When do I start?" Tanong ko. "Maybe tomorrow, anytime when you're okay with it." Sabi ni mom.

"Tomorrow's good! By the way mom is Candy here already?" I asked. "She went to your room." Sabi ni dad.

I went to my room and saw my cousin playing with her laptop, she was watching weird videos.

"What are you watching?" Tanong ko. "I'm watching the old episodes of ICarly, man I miss that show." Sabi niya.

"Aint that Victoria Justice? What's her role there?" Tanong ko. "Oh, her role there is Sasha Striker she's a UFC fighter... and come to think of it magkapareho kayo ng pangalan." Sabi niya.

"Nice! But I'm not a fighter Candy." Sabi ko. "Yeah that is the problem, so now tell me what happened during your walk?" Tanog niya,

"It was fine, until I reached the park... five people chased me and I was about to hit a kid pishing a cart when I suddenly made a front flip, and not just that! I stopped running because I was by the highway already and I didn't know what got into me I grabbed the handle of a running jeep and jumped in... It was crazy! You should have been there!" I said. "Wow... that's awesome couz!" She said.

I stud up from the bed then turned my back from her. "I don't know what got into me couz! It was weird--- whoops! Almost." I trailed off because she threw a ball at me at I managed to skip it even tho I wasn't looking.

"How!?" Sigaw ni Candy. "I don't know!!!!" This is getting strange! How did I do that!?

This is going to be a long year...
